HOW HE MADE A FORTUNE.

They tell curious story of old Chris
topher Meyer, who was more or less with
Ives. Many years ago he was a workman
III factory where rubber shoes were made.
He received the fabulous sum Of $l.25 a
day. At night he worked out the details
OF an invention for economizing in the num-
ber Of men employed In the factory. One
day he finished bis machine, carried 1t to
the shop, and showed his boss how well 1t
would do the work Of dozen or twenty
men. The boss was thunderstruck, but
before he could examine the invention
Meyer seized big hammer and knocked
its delicate machinery into chaos. -.
s'But want that" protested the boss.
~ know you do," answered the work
man, quietly.
"Come and see me tomorrow noon,"
continued the head of the firm, pompously,
'aDd we will make some rrangements--"
"If you want to talk business with me-"
remarked the workman, coolly, "you can
come to my lodging at 7 o'clock tonight.
Better not be late"
The millionaire was there at Z, Meyer was
taken into the firm, and In short time he
was at the head OF the business. He lives
In New Brunswick, N. j., In a pretentlous
house, and his SONS are all well married. A
short time ago the old man-he Is more than
20 years Of age-took II into his head to
marry again, picked out beautiful 10 year.
old girl, and prepared for the wedding.
Immense opposition was expected from the
family, as old Meyer is worth ten or twelve
millions, but, to the amazement and chagrin
OF society and the sensational press, all OF
the old manufacturers friends, family, and
connections backed him up heartily. and
sent him off on his bridal tour looking and
feeling like major.

BOYCOTTED BY THE GIRLS.
The Fate of Young Tipplcrs in Parts
of the Ponnsylvauia Coal Regions.
philadelphia Times.)


of the Pennsylvauia Coal Regions.
philadelphia Times.l
The progress OF temperance principles
among the young Irish.Americans Of the
coal region within the last ten years Is
simply without q parallel in the history
of temperance reform. In fact, the tenn
perance feeling is now so strong that no
young man can enter the charming circle
Of female society unless he is an avowed
temperance man and wears the Father
Mathew badge. 1t has now come to such
pass that the young Irish-Amercan
ladies will have nothing to do with the man
who drinks. By. raising. this boycott
against the boys the girls have played the
part of true temperance missionaries, IN
that they succeeded in driving the young
men into the societies.
An ILLUSTRATION Of this was seen In the town
of Beaver Meadow last spring, when all the
girls In the place combined and resolved that
they would not accept the attention Of any
young man until he had first signed the
pledge and joined the st. Aloysus Society.
For while 1t was thought that the young
ladies were not In earnest, and that the
boycott would soon be lifted. But the
young ladies were determined, and
when the young fellows found
this out they surrendered, and
f0rthWlth there wa q rush Tor aumlBel0n
into the local temperance society. The lat
ter is now in very aourlshing condition.
OF those who Join these temperance socie-
ties about ten out of forty "fall from grace"
in other words, 60 back to drink. But the
deserter's downfall does not last long.
After his debauch he sees the folly OF his
ways and thinks how happy he was when
he was sober.
But this Is not the worst. All his friends
are travelling in an opposite direction and
shun the outcast altogether. The result is
that man who breaks his pledge becomes
disgusted with himself and returns to the
society. After taking the pledge for a
second time he hardly ever goes back
TO drink again. The number who
do break the pledge second time
is only one In seventy. A member
who forfeits his membership in society
forfeits all his dues paid into the treasury
by him. All the societies are beneficial,
and take good care OF the sick, widows,
and orphans. The st. Aloysius Society, OF
Wilkes Barre, has 4s0 names on its rolls
and over $1,000 In its treasury. Tbe Father
Mathew Society and the Father Mathew
Cadets have 200 more members. Every
society has handsome uniform.

Have Poultry Slain for Them.
New York Evening SUM-
It is not known how many butchers are
interested in the poultry, but every one in
the city who serves conforming jewish Gus
toners patronizes this place. Friday is the
best day for killing, and the slaughter be-
gins about . o'clock In the morning. 1t
continues then until all the
fowls have tapped their last
Zap and most OF them have been
is the next best day in summer: but in
winter time Wednesdays and Fridays are
the great days Of slaughter. Yesterday
1,160 more or less fat bipeds had their
throats cut at this sanguinary spot, and to-
day 10000 or 1000 have undergone the
same process. Saturday is the only day in
the week that the big coops are anything
like empty, It being the Jewish Sabbath,
butchefing 10 postponed until Sunday.
One would think that II required good
many experienced butchers 10 dispatch such
large number OF fowls, but the method Of
killing 10 so simple and rapid that few
men can readily do the work In o few hours.
Each butcher or owner of poultry employs
his regular rabbi TO do the killing, and some
times there are as many as twenty-five
working away like beavers at the necks OF
chickens, ducks, and geese In this dead
house Of feathery creation. Eleven rabbis
are constantly employed. An expert and
fast killer can easily kill 175 70 Sls in an
hour.
The basement where the slaughtering is
done lie room about sixty feet In depth and
thirty In width. Around the wall are pro-
jecting hooks upon which the condemned
roosters or ganders are hung In punches OF
three. The birds are always hung up In
bunches, with the head downward. The
rabbi, clothed In big leather apron which
envelopes almost the entire body, stands

neatly does the fated throat splitting. The
knife he uses 10 of Inc steel, about three
nches long In the blade, aud thin, soma
thing like that Of shoemaker. The
butcher straightens out the neck OF the
bird, carefully brushes away the feathers,
and with quick movement draws the
He then gives It little squeeze to be sure
that the throat is severed, and takes up
another fowl. No op is made except to
wipe the blade Of the knife when It gets
too bloody or to sharpen II when 1t gets
Mr.. Charles Wolf, who manages the
place, escorted the reporter about the
building the other morning. 1t was about
Q o'clock, and four rabbis were at work.
All Of them wore long boards, and were be-
spattered with the blood OF the fowls they
bad killed. After making an incision In
the necks the birds are left hanging until
all the blood has dripped out, ana are then
thrown into wagon and carted away to
the butcher shop Of the owner, to be ex-
posed for sale.
In speaking Of the business Mr.. Wolf
said: "ln the summer time we kill an aver.

100 turkeys, and 1,4oO geese. In winter .
great many more turkeys and geese are

fowl he kills. This Is paid to him by the
